In weight training, the speed at which you lift weights can affect your fat loss. The faster you lift a weight, the fewer calories will be burned per minute than if you were to do it slower. For an exercise that uses only one arm and leg such as a squat or lunge with dumbbells in hand, for example, slow down on each rep so that both arms are raised simultaneously before lowering them again. This is because muscles need time to reload their energy stores after each contraction.

I'd say dieting is more effective for getting lean, but a recent study shows exercise may be superior to staying lean. It also causes less hunger than dieting to create a deficit. #diettip #getlean #getslim #getleanmealplan #gettingskinnyquick

Eating dinner at the wrong time can be detrimental to weight loss. New research from the University of Surrey has found that eating your evening meal early, before 7pm, could help you lose weight faster than those who ate later in the evening. The study looked at 3 groups of people and their habits around when they ate their dinner: Early Dinner Group (which had a 6-hour window), Late Dinner Group (9 hours) and Nighttime Suppertime Group (12 hours).
